You froze. You simply couldn't move anymore. Nothing else existed. There was only him and you. You dared to lock your turquoise eyes into his red one. But it wasn't good. You couldn't look away. The air was heavy and dark. Right now, you were scared. Your body didn't shake from fright, but he could see it in your eyes. You never knew how he could see your true feelings, but he could. Even if no one was able. And that scared you. All the things he was able to do that no one could was frightening. You knew that he wasn't as strong as your old man and being scared of a pirate like him seemed strange, but that was the reality. You were scared of him. Of course, you could ask pop's to destroy him, but you didn't want to worry him. He was old and he worried more about his family than his health. You didn't want him to know what happen three years ago with that case. It was still fresh in your head and it still hurts when you think about it. Was is because you were ashamed of what happen or because you were scared of his reaction or simply because the pain still lingered, you didn't know. But you knew you would avoid that time.
You noticed that Jack didn't bring all the crew. There was his first mate and maybe 12 others. You were pretty sure that no one, beside the captain and Daniel, knew what happen. After all, only Jack survived three years ago. Well, he only survived because he left his crew behind while you killed everyone... That was what you hated about him. He was one of the captains who didn't care about the crew. The kind of person that wasn't respect because people cared about him. People respect him because they were scared. Scared that he would kill them on the spot. Jack was truly a despicable captain. But he was strong. Very strong. Though, his bounty was still lower than yours. Still, right now, he could probably beat you. He had a great strength, but you were faster. The only way you could win was to never get hit. But, that would be almost impossible.
"Aww, don't stare at me like that, it makes me shy."
You were purely disgusted by the way he talked.
"Leah, don't tell me you forgot me, isn't it because of you that I lost my left eye ?"
Yes, you remembered him. In fact, it is quite hard to forget.
"You really made me sad when you tried to kill me."
When he finished his sentence, all the members were tense. You sense their blood lust and their eyes on you filled with anger. It seemed like Jack gather a pretty loyal crew. But, would he stay loyal to them. Probably not, but maybe he changed. Maybe he changed, but for one purpose. To get his revenge.
You watched him carefully, just like a cat watching a mouse. His red eye was narrowed as he knew very well what you were thinking. He took a step forward, but you kept your distance by taking a step back. He was approximately 10 meters away. Judging the distance, you knew you could easily run away without getting caught. And Jack wasn't a fool. He knew it as well. But you were on your old man territory. You couldn't run away, risking the life of all the people living in Avalon. It was your duty to protect them while you were here. You were trapped. And it wasn't good for you. The only thing you could do was fight. But, in the same time, you couldn't. Because if you ended up losing, then you wouldn't be able to protect the island. Red Eyes Demon, Jack was indeed a damn bastard.
"What do you want, Jack ?"
The usual smile was replaced by a cold expression and a tone as cold as well. But, he didn't mind. He just continued his acting by faking a sad tone.
"Leah, why are you so cold to me ?"
But, even with his sad voice, his wicked smile said something else. As if he was enjoying what was happening.
"Stop fooling around. Tell me what you want."
Wow, that's been a while since your voice sounded harsh. Normally, it was either calm, playful or just warm.
"Alright, I'll tell you what I want. I want you."
He was serious. Damn serious about that. And yet, you could detect his playful tone behind his cold voice. Oh, if only you could send him to hell... Oh wait, you could, but acting recklessly wasn't the best idea. Still, you were curious about what he said. He wanted you ? Why ?
"What do you mean, you want me ?"
He took another step forward, but this time you didn't move. You wanted answers. His smirk grew wider when he saw the look in your eyes. A look that he didn't see for a while.
"It's simple. I want you."
And then, at this moment, a war between the two of you started.
Your dagger crashed full force with his sword. The blast was so strong, that some people were push back. This fight wasn't good for you. You were staring each other for a second, before he tried to kick you in the stomach. You blocked it, but it still sent you a few feet backward. From what you could tell, he was way stronger than you thought. There was no doubt that you would lose. But, you preferred dying than to betray Whitebeard. Once again, you charged at him full speed. But, this time, you jumped to land right behind him. Without losing your speed, you stabbed him where the heart should be. But, Jack knew what was your plan and jumped away from you. The crew watched their captain fighting, but never stepped in. Which means that Jack might have told them to not interfere. About twenty minutes of fight, you were panting hard. Your left hand was pressed on your knee, while you brushed the corner of your mouth with the back of your hand. You had received many wounds in this battle, but you had to say, Jack wasn't in a better shape. Still, you were happy that he didn't injure your wounds that you already had.
"What happen to you, Leah ? If I remember well, you were stronger than that."
When you both regain your breath, you stared at each other. This was going the last attack. This was going to determine who would win. And you feared that you might be the loser this time. You put away your dagger to replace it by a scythe. You were going to give everything you had in the last attack.
"Already using your power ?"
You ignored his comment and charge one more time. Then, everything looked like the first blow. Only this time, everything fade to black. Your scythe faded away and the last thing you heard before fainting was,
"You lost, princess."
Five days passed before you open your eyes. The first thing you felt was the burning sensation in your eyes. You tried to move but then, you noticed you were chained. Not with normal handcuff. They were made of sea stone. You closed your eyes again before opening them. Your vision was not adjusted yet, but you could see that you were in a cave. There was only one window and by the light you were able to say it was still early in the morning. Then, you heard a door open. A small breeze blew into the dark room making you shiver. When the footsteps grew louder, you tried to see who was there, but the person was still too far for you to see. You try to speak, but no sound came out. Though, a burning feeling assaults your throat.
"I see you're awake, princess."
Well, the good news is that now you know where you are and who is there. The bad news ? It's that you are on Jack's ship. Which isn't a place you wanted to be.
Well, I do not own One piece. Only my O.C
